EPS Foam Densifier Relieves Pressure on Waste in the Construction and Packaging Industry

EPS foam is a versatile material with many uses, the most widespread of which are in the packaging and construction industries. EPS foam has been recognized as the mainstream insulation material since the 1950s. The thermal insulation and cushioning properties of EPS foam make it an essential raw material for the packaging industry. However, a lot of use also brings a lot of waste, and a lot of leftovers and scraps have become a problem for the two major industries. Fortunately, EPS foam densifier can be used to deal with EPS foam waste.



As mentioned above, EPS foam can maximize energy efficiency, improve indoor environmental quality and enhance durability. This is due to the insulation and thermal insulation performance of EPS foam. However, in the construction industry, there are a lot of EPS foam leftovers after cutting. The waste piled up on the site, cluttering up an otherwise clean and tidy environment. What's more, EPS foam accumulation can cause a fire. Last year alone, several large factories caught fire due to accumulation of EPS foam waste. In the packaging industry, used EPS foam boxes, containers, etc. are often thrown away as disposable waste. EPS foam packaging is mixed with other wastes and sent to landfills or incineration plants, which will only cause more environmental pollution. This makes EPS foam repeatedly proposed to be banned by some environmentalists.



However, the extremely high cost performance and material characteristics of EPS foam make it difficult to be replaced in the construction and packaging industry. How to deal with these problems? EPS foam densifier is a recycling machine specially designed for processing EPS foam waste and scraps. Through steps such as shredding and compression, EPS foam waste is reduced in volume, which makes it easier to transport and store. What’s more, many recyclers will buy EPS ingots to manufacture other plastic products.



INTCO Recycling keeps learning EPS foam recycling knowledge and manufacturing best EPS foam recycling machines, such as GREENMAX EPS foam densifier. With the popularity of EPS foam recycling, INTCO provides advanced EPS foam densifiers for many customers from construction and packaging industries. It can be proacted that EPS densifier will solve their problems and also bring new opportunities to them.
